Transition time come on!

While waiting for my visa...

It's the time to finishing transition to Ando, my successor in Indonesia! And at the same time starting transition virtually with PJ, my predecessor in the Czech Republic! :))

Just realized that no matter how much we do, the same lying if did not proceed. Regeneration is important! ;D

dreaming for 2015...

Dreaming... dreaming... dreaming...
Planning... planning... planning...
Action... action... action...

In the year 2010, is the time to start talking about long term plan for 2015! Back then in my school, I learned that government and company do long term planning.

But now in this international NGO, called AIESEC, we also experienced it in such this young age. Took place in a very nice mall in Jakarta :D it was very interesting to go through the process from reflecting my past experiences since I joined AIESEC at the first time, until imagining and predicting what gonna be happening in the future when we reach 2015!

At least I realized more on how much learning that I got from almost 5 years experiences here and very nice to see how much growth that this organization can do for the next 5 years in order to achieve the maximum impact for the society :))

Balance is just perfect!

I was so happy when few weeks ago finally hanged out again with my friends to refresh my mind and gathered with my family to recharge my energy.

It was on Friday night when my bestiest macchiato who are Gery, Boti, Nana, Army, Iis, Rehuel, except Chaca wanted to have dinner together after office hours. Just simply gathered at Roti Bakar Eddy, then we ate so many foods from sate padang, bakso, empek-empek, etc.! Soo yummyy those traditional foods from Indonesia! ;))

Then we continued to have coffee and play games at Sinou, a new place that I never been to. Surprisingly that cozy restaurant and cafe is owned by my cousin! OMG, what a small world! And I really like the cheese stuffed mushroom and green tea cappuccino :))


Then the next week, I had a family "arisan", sort of social gathering periodically where we collect money and take turns at winning it! So much fun to see new family member (the baby who just born :) and very good moments to gather with all busy family! And againn, it was held at Sinou, where we booked all the 2nd floor place!

Relay the Race...

Give me freedom, give me fire, give me reason, take me higher
See the champions, take the field now, you define us, make us feel proud
In the streets are, exaliftin , as we lose our inhabition,
Celebration its around us, every nation, all around us

Singin forever young, singin songs underneath that sun
Lets rejoice in the beautiful game.
And together at the end of the day.

WE ALL SAY

When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom Just like a wavin’ flag
And then it goes back
And then it goes back
And then it goes back

Guess y'all knew already about the lyric above.
Exactly that's the official World Cup 2010 anthem in South Africa by K'naan!
I dunno why lately I really like this song during MC Team Transition in Indonesia.
I am not sure it's related though but yeah the passion, energy, and spirit in that song is just amazing!
I can feel it just through watching the following video :))




And I don't know if it's a coincidence, but I started to like this song after had a meeting with Torsten Kuenzlen, President Director of Coca Cola Indonesia, which is the official sponsor of World Cup 2010 ;D
So for people around the world, let's use this hype to make positive energy around us!

APXLDS Taiwan 2010

I was so happy when I got the opportunity to attend Asia-Pacific Exchange and Leadership Development Seminar on March 2010 in Taiwan, supported by Czech MC! ;)) It was very interesting as I was being representative for 2 countries, Indonesia and CR at the same time!
This was a very good starting point for my upcoming term, as I met people from AI and other members from Western countries in order to start adjusting to the Czech culture and working style. I discussed a lot with them, especially to Katka Prochazkova, a Czech girl who is MCVP ER in Taiwan, and also Aman Jain, PAI 09/10! Thanks guys for the insight!

















As a gift to bring back home to the members, I recorded message from PAI and challenges from some countries! ;))

Take the opportunity, it might be ONCE in your lifetime!

When the new year 2010 came...

This means it would be the time for us to recheck our direction in our life, as we would reflect on what are the learnings that we got throughout the year and try to align it again to the red line. And I had simple celebration with 3 my best friends who are Gery Irvandi, Rizky Afriza, and Rehuel Ayal at Pastis, an American Colonial Kitchen, in Kuningan, Jakarta.
At that time, one of my main resolution for 2010 is to get international experience! This is connected to my previous blog at International Congress in Malaysia when I was imagining if there are some Indonesian people being international MC in the other countries or even sitting in the board of AIESEC International! Therefore I decided to apply for an international MC position which I am not sure I could get the same chance again in the future if I entered my career path in the real world. And I was extremely happy on the love month - February - that it was fulfilled by announcement of 3 people in the Rainbow team, who are Jenni for AIVP Country Development, Dessy for MCVP Exchange in Thailand, and including myself for MCVP ICX and Project in Czech Republic! ;D
Woohooo, I will be fulfilling my international experience in Czech Republic for 1 year! And at the same time, Indonesia has its' representative in 3 countries!
OMG, I can't wait to see and live in the beautiful Prague (according to many people said ;)) And of course to meet the members in the Czech Republic! Hihii, see you soon Simply MC!
